Earl Thomas posted an Instagram photograph of himself working out, with the caption "Always been the underdog ain’t nothing new . Extend .....if you don’t want me let’s make a trade happen I understand it’s a bizz." (Earl Thomas via Instagram)
Fantasy Impact:
Thomas tweeted in June that he would sit out OTAs and all team activities until his contract situation is resolved, and it's obviously still on his mind. Seattle does not appear to have much interest in extending or trading him anytime soon, which should cause Thomas' agitation level to continue to rise. Whether he is motivated or distracted by that agitation remains to be seen, but missing time with so many new parts on Seattle's defense can't help his chances of putting up a big contract year.
